Cake for Mama's 61st Birthday!



 .....So yummy....loved the coffee flavor!!! Anyways, I made this cake 4 hours before the party.....and thanked God it still turned out to be a good one.  My niece thought I bought this cake from Goldilocks, a popular cake shop here in the Philippines.  She couldn't believed I made this one.  I am pretty happy about this creation, I just thought of the design on the spot though.  Hubby thought it look like a pro!!!  "Thanks my love, you never fail to compliment my creations..."

my first time to piped a rosette design, not bad at all!






I am glad to see a smile on her face when she saw the cake. I think she was so very proud of me.  And I am also very proud of her!
   This is a 3 layered cake with chocolate in the middle. Iced it with Italian Meringue Icing and decorated with rosette and border using the WHIPPIT icing with coffee flavor. I should have roasted the sliced almonds to give it some contrast, oh well there's always a next time....!

The Barner's fave!

Classic Blueberry Cheesecake
       For my "suki" Elvie & Paul Barner nothing beats this classic fave.  They simply love this blueberry cheesecake!  This is not a cheapy one, it's baked and it tastes better compared to the no-bake that you can easily buy at the mall.  It's pricey because of the imported and expensive ingredients but it is worth your money......only if you appreciate the rich taste of cream cheese desserts such as this!  Thanks for your orders.

Czeannon's Angry Bird Cake

   I was happy about the outcome of this cake.   This was an easy one to make.  I have discovered an easy way to do my icing/frosting by using the product "WHIPPIT".  I just totally fell in love with this thing. So convenient, so easy to find and stable in a warm weather place like the Philippines.  I was skeptical about this product when the salesperson was trying to sell me one he did not convinced me at all.  I just had to ask someone from the store who actually have used it before.  And a lady customer told me it's pretty stable and it taste  like marshmallowy so i grabbed one.  And "walla" instant icing....no sweat! and it tasted really great...not so sweet and you can make it very light textured also.  Although, it is a little bit pricey but it did saved me a lot of time and effort. 
              Thanks Lovely Salonn for the order!

Pokemon themed Fondant Cake



     I am so glad Ms. Ma. Cecil Baclayon-Lagare who is by the way a very nice lady customer was so pleased with her order.          Although I was frustrated with the fondant color red, it turned out to be very dark red.  I learned that as the color gel soaked overnight the color turns darker. 
      Actually, the lady from the baker's basket store told me that if violet and red/red mixed together  would be a bold/super red.  I really wanted a bright red so maybe next time I'll just use single super red or red red color gel.

     I was a little bit worried that I would not satisfy her wishes but thankfully she really liked it as well as her guests on her son's birthday party.
      Nothing else inspires me but to know that I have a satisfied customer who appreciates my cakes.   
It's encouraging to know that I make people happy with my creations.  I enjoy making them anyways.  
    To God be the Glory!  God bless everyone!

My cheesecakes...

Durian Cheescake

 This is how it all started...my cheesecake journey.....   
      
 It has been awhile since my last baking, that was during my son's first birthday. The durian fruit was in season that time. So I decided to make a Durian cheesecake. ...it was a big hit then!




    

Another time during our high school batch reunion, I brought this mouth-watering cheesecake for our dessert.  At first, I was hesitant to make one because the restaurant we were going to served cheesecakes. 
  I wanted to be thoughtful to everyone so I brought it anyway.






  Well, of course, who would resist CHOCOLATE and plus they didn't have to pay for it! ...hehehe... It was free for everybody so it must be good, right?!  .....But no, really it was super duper soooo yummy!  I didn't expect that it would be a hit!  I have thought that cheesecake would not be appreciated well here in the Philippines... Yah, I was so so wrong.  Most of them right away expressed interest in ordering one....                 


     So, I got inspired and thought of pursuing this as a business....clever! I know, right?! 

   I started selling them since December of last year.  So far, I've got really nice comments about the cakes... It was worth it knowing that I'm getting satisfied customers.  This one here, I made during our thanksgiving feast at church.


       

 I sold mostly the chocolate bliss and few of the blueberry cheesecakes.



The photo below is my version of Cookies n Cream Cheesecake


     For now,  I am planning to experiment on other flavors, specifically a mango-flavored one.  I've been wanting to do this for quite sometime now... I and my hubby loves mango and so everyone here in the Philippines.  Hopefully, it will also be a great addition to my cheesecake selections.

Ultimate Carrot Cake Goodness!!!


 ULTIMATE CARROT CAKE GOODNESS!!!

     My very first moist carrot cake ever and it turned out to be full of gooodnesssss!! I would never have thought I would love the taste of carrot in a cake. Not until I got americanized and tasted the Duncan Hines decadent carrot cake mix. That's what I missed about being in the states everything is almost instant...how convenient, right!
     
   Anyways, whenever I liked something that I ate in a restaurant for an instance, there's a thing in me, that makes me wanna do a duplicate or "do my own version" thing.  Sounds challenging, right!  Since I missed being in the states, I thought of making a copycat of Duncan Hines decadent carrot cake and the result was awesome! My husband and lady friends loved it!

     
       I shared some to a dear friend for a birthday present, not knowing that it is her favorite cake....how timely! ...I wish you could see that excitement on her face!
     I have to admit that this cake is a lot of work...but its worth it! As you can see candied carrots were also made from scratch! And oooh....the cream cheese frosting was heavenly...yumm!


                 ......Please feel free to e-mail me if you want to try this recipe

.....and also I can take orders if you don't have time to bake!
